Recently, I played through an Io Lost Sector: Sanctum Of Bones, ran through it aimlessly until I got to the boss, but then I stopped and took a closer look. The boss is a Taken Knight, named Pandrok, Pillar of Nothing.

For those who pay close attention to trending lore topics, some will know of the mystery of “what is Nothing?”. It appears in many places in the lore, such as Calus, and The Nine. The thing in question here is Pandrok’s title,”Pillar of Nothing”. Could this “Nothing” be the same as is referenced by Calus, and The Nine? Or is it just a name?

Pandrok is probably a powerful knight taken by Oryx and playing up now there's a vacancy until Savathun and Oryx return. The Nothing will just be it's title and a name for Pandroks followers. I don't think this is bungie re-writing The Darkness. I think they were saying (badly) that they didn't know 100% what The Darkness was but that was until Books of Sorrow were commissioned and The Darkness was revealed as the power beneath Fundament that bestowed the worms on what became Oryx, Savathun and Xivu Arath, and that the purpose of The Darkness is the final shape. Obviously I could be totally wrong. I hope that's what's happened and that after Destiny 2 they bother to make a game worthy of the lore.
